MAY BE THIS ONE IS MORE APPROPRIATE FOR YOU

Just read that air soft had bought out a storm trooper rifle replica.
Seriously
Don’t buy it if it ever comes in gel blaster .
You won’t hit anything you are aiming at.
They actually have a real storm trooper rifle called a blas-tech E-11

i’m loving his background wall…!!

A few years back, i actually imported, and on sold some stormtrooper blasters…
They came from the UK, and were a pretty good quality build.

Replicas of that quality, weren’t readily available in OZ, at the time…

might bring in another, when they are back in stock…
They did take a while, to sell though…

One of the most simplest movie props ever back in the day. Sterling SMG with stock folded, job done :wink:

I got it… :laughing:

Not only could these guys never hit anything, their armour apparently offerred about as much protection as wrapping yourself up in shit tickets… :joy:

you mean how stormtroopers never hit anything…??
Dont worry, they fixed that up… :rofl: :rofl:

Now that was funny excellent editing

Unionised StormTroopers! :joy:

I had a new toy arrive today. A Leatherman P4 Free. Not a gel blaster, I admit, but useful for fishing and just…carrying around day to day. It’s magnetic instead of friction fit, so the pliers open like a butterfly knife, and every single tool can be open one handed.

I’ve also found some custom tools online that I can use to replace the two knives with a T shank jigsaw blade holder, and a scalpel blade holder. Gonna get those, plus a custom screwdriver slot that can take Leatherman screwdriver bits. Then the whole thing will be knifeless if I don’t have a scalpel blade attached. Which means it will be street legal and I can take it anywhere :smiley:

I’ve been getting into “Everyday Carry” lately, and currently am carrying my new P4 and a ThruNite TN12 Pro torch (1900 lumen, 36000 candela) with a Switchback instead of the pocket clip. Got everything together (along with a pen) in a nice AliEx leather belt mount that I wanted to try out before dropping $250 on a proper American leather sheath from Tale of Knives.

Next, I want to get a nice slim metal pen with a top mount pocket clip, to replace my Bic.

She’s not even my biggest light. I slimmed down from the Fenix TK16 that I’m planning on using for rabbit spotlighting.

Gawd…now I’m getting Tenvy…
That’s torch envy…
I use a 1000 lumen led lenser, on walkarounds… and captains are “ what , wow!!”

If it’s not retina searing, it’s not truly endearing…:sweat_smile::rofl:

1000 lumens is the start of the ‘badass’ lumen ratings :laughing: What light in particular are you using?

Led lenser p7r
The older model, with the silver button , at the rear…
Newer models, have the “twist focus”…
Mine has …” push pull focus”

Don’t get me started, torches are another obsession, of mine…
X21, x14… Headlamps…
P7R fits into the nav bag, is small and light…
But, still blisters the paint… :joy:

I also have a led lenser mt-18…
A 3000 lumen beast…
I don’t dare use it, it will upset the neighbours…

Good for outdoor trips, though…

oh no. you’ve given me an australian torch brand. my wallet will remember this betrayal.

These are some nice designs. I was considering getting an Archer Pro for my mum and cousin for Christmas, but I know Mum in particular would love something Australian made. Do they do anything with a 14500 battery and moonlight mode? She wants something hand-cranked, but I get the feeling that a light being able to go for 72 hours will fill the gap.

Edit: ok there are some stupidly cool designs here. i like this iF4R thing a lot

Truly, i really dont know, about their battery designs / moon light mode.
I bought my MT-18 about 3 years ago…

“gotta stop buying torches, to get more blasters…!”

OK, you asked for it, so here it is…
single barrel, double barrel, triple barrel trouble…!!

Edit : the x14 is a bit lame…only 4 aa’s
only 500 lumens… but its pump action…!!
The p7r, runs off a 18650 lipo…

God damn, you got some star trek lookin’ lights there, the double lense one especially. Those are some nice tail designs too. A nice break from all the ND preventers I’ve seen lately. WDYM pump action though? Back up power source?

No,
Before Led lenser went to lipo batteries( with greater outputs)

They mostly ran off standard aa’s / aaa’s batteries…

Getting 500 lumens, out of a 4 AA battery torch, was quite a feat…
The X14 , was 4 aa’s ,and had a " pump action" focus … ie back and forth…

Quite an older model now, but i have one…

The MT-18, knocks sattelites, out of orbit…!! :rofl:
You’d get arrested, for using one, in your backyard…!! :rofl: :rofl:
